It’s Almost Time for Summer Camp!

Would your kid squeal at the idea of digging up dinosaur fossils? How about winning a ribbon for cupcake decorating at a County Fair? Mine can’t wait to build a rocket ship and blast into space to visit her favorite planet.

Camp is a fantastic way for preschool kids to stay active and engaged during the long summer months. Albany Preschool offers a week-by-week summer camp program June 26 to August 18 (Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 1 PM), which is open to non-Albany Preschool children as well. Each week-long program is centered on a fun theme to encourage exploration and interest.

For children who plan to attend APS in the fall, summer camp provides an important opportunity to ease into preschool. The lower-key setting allows them to gain a sense of ownership in the new school environment before the formal school year starts, so they feel at home. And it’s just so much fun!

Here’s what to expect at APS Summer Camp:

Fun and Play: Tie-dye, cook, read books, play games

Music: Sing and play instruments

Outdoor Activities: Water and sand play, swing and bike, pitch tents

Arts and Imagination: Build forts, design rides and rockets, act out fairy tales, dress up, draw and paint

Cooking: Prep treats, and (everyone’s favorite) make ice cream every Friday!

Here’s a sneak peek at the 8 weeks of APS Summer Camp we’re offering this year. Which themes spark your child’s interest?

Week 1: Splish, Splash, Water Fun

Week 2: Albany Preschool’s County Fair

Week 3: Let’s Go Camping

Week 4: Princesses, Pirates and Fairy Tales

Week 5: Music, Instruments and Talent

Week 6: Exploring Science: Dinosaurs and Volcanoes

Week 7: Aliens and Astronauts

Week 8: Cooking: Math and Science in the Kitchen

Registration is now open until May 1. Please see our Summer Camp information page for weekly camp theme descriptions, tuition and applications.
